'After The Flood' 2nd Edition Now Revised and Expanded

This popular book lays out the astonishing evidence showing how the earliest Europeans recorded their descent from Noah through Japheth in meticulously kept records, knew about Creation and the Flood, and had encounters with creatures we would call dinosaurs. These records from other nations lend chapters 10 and 11 of Genesis a degree of accuracy that sets them apart from all other historical documents of the ancient world.

This updated and expanded edition has an extra chapter on historically attested dinosaurs, plus a dozen coloured illustrations of dinosaurs from sculptures, paintings, a ship’s figurehead and ancient seals.

The Authenticity of the Book of Joshua

Dr Bill Cooper - B.A. Hons, Phd. Thd.

Is the Book of Joshua nothing more than a book of myths? Was it written nigh a thousand years after the events it pretends to treat of? Had the 15th-century BC Canaanite kings truly never heard of Joshua, and do they not mention him or his people, or even the fall of Jericho in their surviving correspondence?
According to the critics, the answer to the first two of these questions is yes. The answer to the third is no. So what is the poor Bible reader to do? And how is the Bible-believing Christian supposed to cope with such scholarly assurances? We shall see.
In this study – as in all the other studies in the Authenticity series – we shall not merely allow the Book of Joshua to speak for itself, but shall listen very carefully to the many witnesses of old who are happy to testify to its authenticity. And we shall not just consider the macro-evidence of archaeology which the critics have too readily – and all too hastily – dismissed. We shall make our special study all those microscopic, unsuspected and sometimes hidden details which are there
to be found, details which no forger could ever hope to have got right, and of which he could never have been aware.
It is not simply a question of whether the Book of Joshua is historically authentic or not. There are many books that claim historical authenticity for the facts cited in them. This is a much larger question, for it touches not only the integrity of Joshua but also the integrity of God whose Word this is. If Joshua is full of lies, which the critics have always claimed, then what would that say of its Author? This present study, it is greatly hoped, will go some way at least to repudiating and exposing the calumnies of modern Bible criticism.

New Testament Fragments amongst the Dead Sea Scrolls.

In 1955 there were discovered several papyrus fragments in Qumran Cave 7. The unusual – and unexpected – feature of Cave 7 was that all of its fragments were in Greek, as opposed to the exclusively Hebrew and Aramaic scrolls that had been found in the other caves. Apart from two of the fragments which were from the Greek version of the Old Testament (Exodus and the apocryphal Letter of Jeremiah), the rest of the fragments from Cave 7 were all catalogued as unidentified, and were considered indeed to be unidentifiable.

That’s how things remained until 1972, when the papyrologist, Dr José O’Callaghan, thought that he would try to identify them. They were housed at the Rockefeller Museum in Jerusalem, and in April 1972 he was able to do a hands-on examination of each of them and to take a series of infra-red and other photographs. What he discovered concerning them was to shock the academic world – the fragments belonged to books of the New Testament.

The Forging of Codex Sinaiticus.

Next only to the King James Bible, Codex Sinaiticus is by now perhaps the most famous (many would say infamous) book in the world. Its impact when it surfaced in the mid 19th century was immediate, and even today is powerfully felt in the world of Bible scholarship. That is because it is pretended to represent a version of our Bible which is quite unlike the Received Text, and is trumpeted abroad as representing the original text of the Bible before the Protestant church and its bishops got their political hands on it, changing it into the Bible that we know today.

It is also wrongly claimed to be the oldest and the best manuscript of the Bible, representing a text to which all others – especially the Received Text – are to be referred. In other words, whenever Sinaiticus differs from the Received Text – which is shockingly often – then its readings are to be held superior to all others and preferred before them all. The impact of this upon Christian doctrine, and especially upon the question of the Bible’s integrity and Authority, has been immense, and it continues to shipwreck the faith of millions.

So, where did this strange book come from? Who wrote it, and why? Under what circumstances did they write it? These are all questions which we hope to answer in this examination of the subject. Until very recently, the task had been insurmountable.
